Mlb 2k12 reviews11/11/2022 ![]() ![]() I’ve at long last properly begun a MyNBA game in NBA 2K22, marking an overdue return to franchise gaming. Regardless, even if you opt for a “ No Money Spent” approach, you can still find yourself getting hooked. That remains a huge issue, and I still condemn those mechanics. There have been many articles and videos that have discussed how recurrent revenue mechanics prey on those who struggle with impulse control and addictive personalities. On several occasions, I’ve joined the chorus of people who have criticised the practice. Much has been written about the predatory mechanics found in NBA 2K, and many other Triple-A video games over the past generation. This week, I’m tipping things off with some reflections on the addictiveness of grinding in modes such as M圜AREER and MyTEAM. We’re at midcourt, and the ball is about to go up…it’s Monday Tip-Off! Start your week here at the NLSC with a feature that’s dedicated to opinions, commentary, and other fun stuff related to NBA Live, NBA 2K, and other basketball video games. Official roster updates have also made this a far less likely phenomenon as the years have gone by. I’ve also focused on games from NBA Live 96 onwards, as those titles have included more comprehensive lineups thanks to inactive rosters and official updates. To that point, I’ve tried to select players who had interesting stories, and/or multiple opportunities to make official appearances in video games. I’d originally planned this as a counterpart series of Friday Five articles, but I’ve instead opted for a single article listing twenty noteworthy examples. This article is basically the opposite of that series, instead focusing on players that did make it to the NBA, but due to the timing of their stints, never made it into a video game’s official rosters. While a handful of those players did tally playing time in at least one NBA game while sometimes appearing in multiple titles, several of them only saw action on the virtual hardwood after being cut in real life while the game was still in production. I have an ongoing series of Friday Five articles documenting players who appeared in more video games than real NBA contests. This week, I’m taking a look back at twenty NBA players that have made no official appearances in video games. You’ll also find old NLSC editorials re-published with added commentary, and other flashback content. Check in every Wednesday for retrospectives and other features on older versions of NBA Live, NBA 2K, and old school basketball video games in general. ![]() This is Wayback Wednesday, your midweek blast from the past! In this feature, we dig into the archives, look back at the history of basketball gaming, and indulge in some nostalgia. ![]()
